·Hello everyone,
Today I purchase a black dial military style vintage watch on a local fly market. I think that the piece is stunning and just cost me about US$40.
The brand of the watch I never see it neither on the internet or in the wild. In fact I can't make the name of the brand from the dial. Here I attach some pictures.
My best guess is the dial is branded "Lärkan-Fuverein". At the bottom, below the mark for 30 sec it says "swiss made" with no "T" on the sides. It can't be seen from the pictures, so please you have to just believe me. When I google "Lärkan-Fuverein" nothing relevant result from the search.
The movement look fine, but without branding or serial number.I look under the balance wheel and everywhere with a magnifier glass, but I couldn't find any mark. It seems that work fine, although it too soon to tell. Here are some pictures.
Last picture it's a little blurry, I apologize for that.
The inside of the back have a what I think is a serial number and a "Swiss" inscription.
I really like this watch. I notice that the second hand is very rusty (I plan to replace it). Additionally the lume for the hand is very bright although do no last very long. The numbers do not shine at all, but its looks like it have some sort of compound on them..
I really like this watch and I plan to keep it. I just want to know a little more about it.
Any one have any reference or experience for this watch or brand?
Any information it is very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
